Meditation to Love things

Post here if you are just starting out with your mindfulness practice. Mindfulness is a really difficult concept to get your head around at first, and it might be that you would benefit from some help from others.

Mindfulness doesn't mean that you are going to enjoy every activity in your life but, with practice, you should be able to approach most tasks/activities with more openness and acceptance.
How?
By maintaining a regular meditation practice.
Best wishes,
Jon

No special way.
Just practice.
Start with 30 mins a day, just sitting and following your breath.
The rest will follow.
